Are you waiting for the perfect opportunity to update your refrigerator or freezer? Now is your chance to receive $35 for recycling your used and working refrigerator or freezer! Peninsula Clean Energy
created a refrigerator recycling program to encourage any San Mateo County residents to upgrade their household appliances to ENERGY STAR products and to save money on their electric bills. For example, 15 years and older refrigerators consume, on average, twice as much energy as a new ENERGY STAR fridge.

- Two units maximum per household per calendar year
- $35 rebate check per unit will be mailed four to six weeks after pickup
